All Elementary and Middle School Principals:

It's that time of year, once again, to start the process of developing your school's Safe Routes Utah Plan (formerly known as SNAP Plan). The Safe Routes Utah Plan form is attached, as well as a link to your school's municipal representative. Due to recent changes to JSD boundaries, your school's municipal representative would like to be included in the initial planning process. As you work with your school's safety team and school community council, please invite your municipal representative to the planning/SCC meeting.

The Safe Routes Utah Plan is a fillable form that must be downloaded.

Safe Routes Utah Plans for schools in the cities of Bluffdale, Herriman, Riverton and South Jordan are due by Friday, January 18, 2019.

Safe Routes Utah Plans for schools in the City of West Jordan are due and will be signed at the Auxiliary Services Building (ASB) auditorium, Thursday, February 21, 2019 at 1:00 p.m.

Don't hesitate contacting Ron Boshard at ron.boshard@jordandistrict.org or at ext. 8-8876 with any questions you may have. For assistance with your school's Safe Routes Utah mapping software, contact Stacy Allen. Her contact information is included on the Municipal Representatives document (refer to link).

Thank you for all you help in identifying families to receive a Thanksgiving Heroes meal. There are PLENTY and I really mean PLENTY of meals available. Don't leave anyone out. At this point, you can send us 50 or more families and they would get a Thanksgiving meal.

  1. Can you get your numbers to Steven Hall, JEF office by Friday Nov 9 at noon. By numbers we mean numbers not forms. JEF needs numbers by Friday noon so food can be ordered.
  2. The forms can come later, Monday to Wednesday, as long as we have the numbers by Friday noon.

To date, only 25% of the allotted Thanksgiving dinners have been filled for our district. What a blessing it will be for our most deserving children to have a meal on Thanksgiving day. Thanks for you help.
